This dish has become one my favorite ways to prepare leeks, well this and grilling,  I don't know if it's the crispy salty Proscuitto, or the ooey gooey gruyere cheese that makes it so irresistible to me. Well, and what wouldn't be good next to a perfectly grilled steak. 

It's really not all that involved but tastes like you spent a lot more time making it than you did.

Here, let me show you.

Cut the leeks in half, but only up to the root not through it. Simmer the leeks in water in a large skillet until tender. (I added a bay leaf to the simmering water) Drain the leeks and arrange in the bottom of a buttered baking dish. Tear the prosciutto into shreds and cover the leeks with them. 

Bake until the prosciutto is crisp. Yes, it does shrink but don't be tempted to use more, I think it would be wayyyy to salty. 

Sprinkle over the leeks the cheese and the nuts. I had spicy pepitas so I used them, not the walnuts the recipe calls for. Now, back into the oven

until the cheese is all melty and bubbly.

It's wonderful alongside some grilled meat, but it's also great on its own for lunch. 

I used only two leeks and pretty much "eyeballed" the rest.  You'll know how much to use if you are using fewer leeks. 

Leek and Prosciutto Gratin

Ingredients

  • 2 Tbsp. unsalted butter
    6 Medium leeks, white and light green parts, ends trimmed, halved lengthwise but still attached at root end
    ¼ tsp. kosher salt
    3 oz Prosciutto, thinly sliced
    4 oz, shredded gruyere cheese
    ½ cup coarsely chopped walnuts

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Spread the butter in the bottom of an 11-by-7-inch gratin dish.

    Arrange the halved leeks in the bottom of a large skillet in one layer, and add water to cover. Bring to a simmer, and cook until the leeks are just tender about 10 minutes.
    Fish the leeks out with tongs and a spider, draining off excess water as you go, and arrange in one layer in the baking dish, rolling to coat in the butter. Season with the salt. Tear the prosciutto into rough shreds, and layer these over the leeks. Bake until the prosciutto is crisp, about 20 minutes.
    Sprinkle over the leeks the cheese, then the walnuts, and bake until the cheese is melted and bubbly about 8 to 10 minutes.

    Serve hot.

    Serves 4-6
